Hello, (имя друга)!

I haven't written you for a long time, sorry! Now I'm writing to you, because I wanna tell you how do I spend the New Year.
It's the most favourite holiday of mine! Everything on the streets is covered with thick snow, and also I have winter vacation. On the 29th of Dec. me and my family always decorate the Christmas Tree! It's all in bright lights and fantastic balls and toys. Looks great! Then I'm helping my Mom to cook pasta and a turkey, some salad and fruits, while dad is decorating the house.
On the 31th we gather all together and giving the presents to each other. It's literally the best moment! After having a holiday dinner, we all come out on the streets and watch fireworks in the sky!
And how do you spend the New Year with your family! What presents do you want to buy them this year?
Write me soon,
With love and best greetings,
